I actually have an epic tale that involves a hippie, a gator, and Jerry Lee Lewis, but unfortunately there’s no time to tell it today.

Please, please tell us your Old Fraternity stories. If they’re like mine, they’re gross, obscene, and side splittingly hilarious. Oh, for the great old fraternity days.

Lol, that’s hilarious.
Dispatcher should have told the New Yorker it’s common for gators to swim up out of toilets, too, so best be careful.

If you must know, male gators court through grunting and tender tail swishes, or so voyeur biologists tell us.

In today’s snowflake society to tell these stories publicly would most likely get me arrested. But when this anti-social distancing nonsense finally ends we could, for instance, meet up with a pack of like-minded miscreants in a Truckee bar and regale ourselves with stories of our past adventures ... which tales are much better told and enjoyed after a few pitchers ... Cheers!

San Francisco bathhouses are full of tender tail swishes.

I have no complaint against gators courting, but San Francisco bathhouse practices make me think that they ought to have a horde of angry, hungry gators unleashed on them. Say, maybe Carl Hiassen could write a comic novel in which a fundamentalist preacher from the Florida swamps arranges that to occur.

Damn. If I could have just mastered a tender tail swish high school might have been better.

You and me both, brother. Oddly, although still without an alluring tail swish, I am slim and look much younger than my contemporaries, so the girls I yearned for in high school are now quite friendly when I see them. Sadly though, they are now old, gray, and cannot fairly be described as slender.

At the risk of backlash from all the wonderful FReeper women, ‘men are like wine, women like milk’..

No woman should take offense at the analogy of men as wine and women as milk. As has been said elsewhere, among the true pleasures in life for a man is the “company and friendship of fine men and the steady companionship of a good woman.” Like wine and milk, the former enliven the mind and raise our spirits, while the latter nourishes us in body and soul.
